When will this zombie die! For Apple, there is almost as much profit in the AppleTV as there is in your average 42" LCD TV. why in gods name would Apple, who has eschewed commodity products continuously, enter into a market who's margins are a…

I don't expect the 'new' port on the ipad to be mini-display. But we'll find out tomorrow. I expect it to be a thunderbolt port [hate the name]. Does thunderbolt video out?

I do not believe we will see an SD card on the iPad or iPhone anytime in the future. it breaks the 'use' model of the device class. The iPad/iPhone are consumption devices. MacBooks, iMacs, Pros are content creation. Photo card goes in PC,…

Live, over the air TV on you iPhone? Apple has 'control issues'. And they want to sell you media. So.. over the air, free content is probably not going to happen. [also -- do people actually WATCH broadcast TV anymore?] Pico Projector in the …

I have read a bunch of people saying 'if it is just the Beatles, why did Apple waste the front page of their web site'. To me, it boils down to this. Getting the Beatles content fills one of the major holes in the Apple content catalog. The Bea…

When I look at the times, the only time that has significant 'meaning' beyond being a time is Midnight in Tokoyo. As Midnight in Tokoyo will be 11/17 - could there be something Significant about 11/17/2010? as everyone pointed out, 7am Cuperti…

Just some thoughts. 1.) This will probably have a camera. As a companion product to the video conferencing iPhone. 2.) App store has netflix. This device would run iPhone OS... 2a.) Netflix now supports iPad video adapter. 3.) It will …

I expect a few surprises, but nothing over the top at WWDC. As it stands, Steve is like a jockey flogging his horse as it passes the third turn "faster damn you, they are almost out of the starting gate!". The other horses: Windows Mobile [m…

As a former Windows PC owner/user, I can say with certainty, there are a few reasons to run MS Windows. Damn Few. And becoming fewer every passing day.

As the Owner of a 3G, I will be buying this. My iPhone lives in a case anyway. This thing could be bright pink with flower power daisies on the back and I wouldn't really care. I just want more horse power, sane multitasking and better battery …
